Dear River: Writing Our Watersheds
In this generative writing workshop we will read poems about rivers, write about our own watershed, located as we are in the Lower Grand River Watershed and its sub watersheds. We will consider how we might address our rivers through the medium of poetry and what the work of restoration ecology might have to do with the work of “re-storying” our watersheds.
Writing Workshop | Witness: Writing from a Changing Place
This one-day writing workshop—Witness: Writing from a Changing Place—will guide you through crafting vivid, compelling depictions of a beloved landscape. Led by author and teacher Tamara Dean, participants explore techniques for immersing readers in place-based experiences and capturing the deep personal and ecological shifts unfolding before us. By the end of this workshop, you’ll have a draft ready to develop further into a story, essay, poem, or longer work—one that speaks to the place that speaks to you.
